bilingual site – single language event Tickets Plus

[Andy Blakely]

Hi there,

I wanting to check if I can use Event tickets Plus on a bilingual site by keeping the ticketing system English. Do Event Ticket Plus and WPML have any conflicts just operating on the same site?

Good evening Andy and welcome to the Events Calendar forum!

Thank you for reaching out to us.

The first thing you should know is that we do not fully support Event Tickets Plus integration with WPML yet: https://theeventscalendar.com/knowledgebase/wpml-support/

This feature is scheduled to be released later this year.

In the meantime, you could get it to partially work, but this is unsupported.

To achieve that, you will need:

1. WooCommerce multilingual
2. Some manual intervention

After creating the ticket AND saving the event, head over to WPML > Support > Troubleshooting page.

Once you are there, you should see several cleanup buttons. I would recommend:

1. Clearing WPML cache
2. Using the button that forces language assignment to items (which is what is creating the issue). This can also be accomplished by deactivating and reactivating WPML.

Your ticket will now magically appear.

The only downside is that the tickets you create in other languages are not really translations of the initial ticket. They are completely independent new tickets.

Let me know if that helps.

Have a great day!

Geoff B.
